Tinker Tailor Schoolboy Spy

By: Paul Haston

Narrated by: Paul Haston

Paul Haston's latest book is a coming-of-age, historical fiction for children aged 9-12, based on real events behind the solving of the Enigma code during World War II.

Tinker’s mother works at the local radio factory. Vital to the war effort, she tells him. Apparently, people need radios to listen to Hitler’s armies rampaging across Europe. But that doesn’t explain the mysterious note he finds in his mother’s bag. Nor the appearance of Ola, the girl with the Eastern European accent. And when his sheep dog, Fidget, leads him to strange whirring sounds coming from Hut 8 in Bletchley Park, Tinker knows he must solve the puzzle, with the survival of his world dependent upon it.
